ABSTRACT:
A communication system that communicates between a base station and a mobile station over a wireless rf channel. The communication system uses a novel protocol for transmitting a data frame in which an 8-bit data byte is divided into two 4-bit data nibbles. Each data nibble is assigned a 4-bit sequence number to form a transmission byte. By determining the sequence number of any transmission byte or series of transmission bytes, the beginning and the end of a data frame can be determined. A CRC check indicates when a data frame has been received successfully. The protocol does not require the use of unique start-of-frame (SOF) and end of-frame (EOF) characters. Also, the system implements a majority vote algorithm that collects data from successively transmitted copies of a given data frame and performs a majority vote to determine a mostly likely received data pattern. The protocol allows the system to achieve an improvement analogous to a 1.5 to 2.5 dB increase in signal power over other transmission protocols that require the use of SOF and EOF characters to transmit a data frame.
